Introducing Leonardo Acosta, Music and Literary Critic
Vol. 5, No. 3, Spring 2008, 95-121 www.ncsu.edu/project/acontracorriente Introducing Leonardo Acosta, Music and Literary Critic Raúl A. Fernández University of California—Irvine Daniel Whitesell Irvine Valley College The recent awards bestowed on Leonardo Acosta, in particular Cuba’s Premio Nacional de Literatura (2006), come as no surprise to the authors of this article who have long been aware of the breadth and depth of Acosta’s essays on music and literature. To many, however, Acosta’s writing career has remained largely invisible. In part this is because Acosta’s major essays began to appear in the early 1980s when he was nearly fifty years old, a time by which most professional writers have established their careers; in part, because he had labored rather independently of any official Cuban institutions. As Acosta noted in his acceptance speech for the Premio Nacional de Literatura he had not been identified as “associated with any literary ‘group,’ or ‘revista,’ or ‘generation,’ or ‘cohort’. Neither had [he] participated in any aesthetic or ideological polemic affecting arts and letters…” His ‘invisibility” may also be in part because his writing has consisted primarily of ensayos, a genre Fernández 96 that attracts less attention from literary critics than poetry or prose narrative. Another contributing factor has been the diversity of the intellectual field Acosta defined for himself—he began as a professional musician, became a journalist, poet and short story writer for a decade, and then became a writer on music and literature. This career trajectory makes it difficult for any other single author to evaluate Acosta’s work as a whole. -

Since the 19th century its music has been hugely popular and influential throughout the world. It has been perhaps the most popular form of world music since the introduction of recording technology. The music of Cuba, including the instruments and the dances, is mostly of European (Spanish) and African origin. Most forms of the present day are creolized fusions and mixtures of these two sources. Almost nothing remains of the original Indian traditions.[1] Overview Large numbers of African slaves and European (mostly Spanish) immigrants came to Cuba and brought their own forms of music to the island. European dances and folk musics included zapateo, fandango, paso doble and retambico. Later, northern European forms like minuet, gavotte, mazurka, contradanza, and the waltz appeared among urban whites. There was also an immigration of Chinese indentured laborers later in the 19th century. -

When a child, my first music experience was the sound of Orquestra Original de Manzanillo and of the wind orquestra Glorietta Morisca, which used to play danzon and other traditional Cuban music in the park of Manzanillo, my native town, called ‘La tierra del Son’ as well, ‘the land of the son’. -

La Descarga Cubana: Una Pelea Contra Sus Propios Demonios
Comparative Cultural Studies: European and Latin American Perspectives 9: 151-156, 2020 DOI: 10.13128/ccselap-11858 | ISSN 2531-9884 (online) Short Notes La descarga cubana: una pelea contra sus propios demonios EMIR GARCÍA MERALLA Escritor, investigador y crítico de músic Los coleccionistas los consideran el pináculo de la música cubana, tanto que han ele- vado a sus ejecutantes a la categoría de mitos; y sobre su origen se han tejido historias y hasta leyendas que se repiten una y otra vez en artículos, reseñas y libros. A mediados de los años noventa hubo un revivir de ellos debido a un golpe de timón del mercado y sumaron una nueva legión de adeptos. Son los discos de la serie “Descargas cubanas” que se grabaron en los estudios de la empresa PANART en los años 1957 y 1959. Sin embargo; existen pocos análisis que se remitan a cuáles pueden ser los orígenes de ese fenómeno llamado “descargas” que se entronizó en la música cubana; sus influencias y sus otros cultores. Se hace necesario hablar de su trascendencia en la música cubana de los años subsiguientes; un capítulo que nadie quiere aventurarse a contar con sus interio- ridades. Hagamos un breve recorrido por este fenómeno y arrojemos luz sobre el mismo. Pero también será un viaje a las profundidades de la música cubana de estos tiempos y veamos hasta donde este hecho fundacional ha sido superado o no. Profundicemos en las causas que provocaron su revivir en los años noventa y atrevamosno a cuestionar el mito de que “tras ella se detuvo el reloj de la música cubana”. -

Rodulfo Vaillant: Nuestro Hombre En Santiago
RODULFO VAILLANT: NUESTRO HOMBRE EN SANTIAGO Raúl A. Fernández Dice la gente refranera que nadie es profeta en su tierra. La excepción a la regla es Rodulfo Vaillant que ha logrado esa alta investidura tanto allende los mares como en su patria chica de Santiago de Cuba. Su renombre internacional es archiconocido: en el año 1998 el Instituto Smithsonian en Washington, D.C., institución cultural y educativa estadounidense que agrupa una docena de museos nacionales entre ellos el Museo de Historia, el Museo de Historia Natural y el Museo Aeronáutico del Aire y el Espacio, y publica varias revistas de investigación, determinó enviar a Cuba una misión musicológica. Comenzando en la década del setenta el Museo de Historia del Smithsonian había puesto en marcha un proyecto de Historial Oral de Jazz diseñado para preservar la historia del género, realizando y archivando para la posteridad largas entrevistas con intérpretes de esa música como Dizzy Gillespie, Billy Taylor, Miles Davis y otros “grandes.” Dicho proyecto se expandió a partir de 1995 para incluir gigantes del Latin jazz y la música cubana en Estados Unidos. Entre 1995-1998 fueron entrevistados, entre otros, Chico O’Farrill, Celia Cruz, Cachao López, Mongo Santamaría, Chucho Valdés en la ocasión de una de sus tours por la Gran Manzana de Nueva York, y Bebo Valdés en entrevista realizada en Estocolmo. Pero faltaba “el pollo del arroz con pollo”: Cuba. Así fue que en viajes realizados entre 1998-2000, Raúl Fernández llevó a cabo a nombre del Instituto Smithsonian una serie de entrevistas con un grupo selecto, si bien muy reducido, de algunas figuras emblemáticas de la música cubana.
